A petition to put a time frame on FOID and CCL appeal process 3 month min – 6 month max.

Who are you petitioning to make that the law ? The Democrat controlled legislature of the state of IL ? Yeah....good luck with that.

If it was up to them they would make the time frame indefinite so they never had to legally issue another FOID or CCL card again.

The whole reason it takes so long is because the whole process is set up to make the people involved overwhelmed, underfunded and always backlogged beyond a reasonable time frame. It wasn't an oversight.....this state hates gun owners.

A time frame for the dumocrats to give your rights back? In Illinois? I agree..........there needs to be a law which is enforceable. Had to call my state rep a few years back to get the wheels greased for my FOID which was at 118 days. She has had my vote since then and is a rare GOP rep. Pretty sad when you have to call a rep to get one of your rights handed to you which are outlined in the Constitution already.

I lived in another state for two months and came back to my home in Cook county. FOID and CCL revoked and in appeal for 11 + months now. I get the same responses too when I call. Honestly, starting to lose hope I'll EVER get it back.

Were they revoked because you moved to another state? If so, you likely need to call and have them reset your account so that you can reapply.

 

You don't get to just have them back because you move back to Illinois.

I actually did call them several times and asked each time if they could do this. They told me each time that when an FOID goes into "REVOKED" status, that you must go through the entire appeal process. I honestly pleaded with them to reset my account and let me reapply, but they always said no. They were always very polite, but would not do that, even when I explained everything.

 

But no matter... last night, Friday night, I received an email from ISP stating that BOTH my FOID and CCL appeals were processed and that I should receive both cards in the mail within 7-10 days. They wrote that it was due to an inquiry sent to her attention, which I believe was an inquiry sent from member here, Molly B. I did write both the governor and my area representative, but never got a response. So it is likely from Molly B.'s inquiry. This is almost exactly one FULL YEAR in appeal.

 

I am beyond thankful and extremely excited to get my permit and my FOID back.
